I wish I was so different,
Someone better off than me....
As my life at times seems boring,
No future that I can see...
Two steps forward,
And one step back...
I try so hard,
To keep my life on track...
There’s always someone better,
They are the ones who will achieve...
And I just walk around wandering,
As I try to just believe...
But as I look a little closer,
Through all the smoke and mirrors...
I suddenly find the truth,
It becomes a whole lot clearer...
I am an individual,
I am unique in every way...
That’s what makes me special,
From the rest of you here today...
It doesn't really matter,
If I'm not there at the top...
I’d rather smell the roses,
If it means I have to stop...
I'll enjoy life a little slower,
You might wait for me awhile...
I'm the one behind you,
With the biggest smile….
